EDITOR RICHARDS SHOT.
The Long Feud Between Him and Editor
Vance Culnip ates.
A. d.,

4 Tue Long reuo Between him ana Euito
Vance Culmip ates.
Special Telegram 10 the Reqiaer.
CLARRsBURG, W. Va, July l.-Thi
evening while Editor Lee H. Vance, pub
Usher of the clarksburg Ne,cs, shot Edito
Richards, of the Telegram. We are inform
ed the trouble grew out of publication
appearing in the last issue of the Telegram
At this telegraphing the condition Of tn
wounded man is not known to your CORE
spondent. Vance promptly surrendered Il
the officers. "
Bad blood has been prevailing for some
time Only . few months ago Vance
brought suit against Richards for S., 600
The jury returned a verdict OF 500 ol
thereabouts. Richards, to be even with
Vance. also brought suit for libel, claim
ing So 600 was necessary to heal his LAGER.
ated feelings. The jpry returned q yer,
diet Of $50. As Richards is alleged TO
have no property in his own name the
Judgment in favor of Vance still stands
against Richards less his (Richards') con-
ira Judgment. The suits have only ter
minated recently and the war on paper has
been kept up at short intervals with un-
paralleled acrimony and vileness, Richards
going TO such lengths as 10 bring about
the sensation of to-day.
At | 30 o'clock Vance met Richards near
Holmes store and shot him. One ball
passed through his arm and another hit
ting him in the mouth, and, being de-
fiected, passed from the jaw into the
shoulder, and perhaps fracturing or break
ing the bone. Vancegave himself up, and
at preliminary hearing that was had be-
fore Justice Northcott he was admitted to
bail in the sum of s. 900. Richards is
not hurt badly.
In this connection some Of the rumpuses
in which Richards has played star parts
may be of interest. Sune four or five
years ago, he published inlis paper articles
of an abusive character alout Mr.. d. G.
Lee, a well known young lawyer of this
place. Mr. Lee met Rhhards on the
street that evening and whaiked him across
the head with q cane, which knocked him
silly Tor an instant, Uut ne IecoNIeu ana
scuffie ensued. Richards broke away
and pulling out his revolver began I4reat-
ing and firing at Lee, who is quite i,large
man, but Richards was unsteady andaever
touched him. While the firing was gong on
Mr.. Lee was hunting for his revolver, b( by
the time he found it Richards had emitted
his revolver and retreated into the vi
dence Of friend near, where he took sR-
ter. He afterwards had Mr. Lee arrest
tor assaulting him and Mr.. Lee was fne,l
$50, but the fine was remitted afterwards.
The next racket occurred about two
years ago or more, when Richards assailed
Camden Osborne in his sheet. Mr.. Os
borne met him that day and promptly lei
daylight right through Richards lungs
which laid him cut for some time, and 1t
was thought he would die, but he got we'll
in order to let some one else shoot him.
Richards has had a number of Other
rows with people whom he assailed through
his paper, and IN most cases he has got
the worst of it.

INSIDE PROCEEDINGS
of the Joint Conference Committee on the
Ironworkers' Wage Question.

of the Joint Conference Committee ON the
Ironworkers' Wage Question.
PITTsBURG, July 1.-The inside of the
proceedings of the conference Of the joint
committee on the wage question of the
iron workers is leaking out to-day. The
meeting yesterday was the most bitter one
held between the manufacturers aud the
committee of their workmen. PersonalI-
ties decidedly pointed were passed on both
sides. During bitter argument one oper-
ator is said to have pointed his finger at
prominent representative Of the Anal
gamated Association and accused him OF
being snake in the grass who had
schemed until he found the manufacturers
were in hole, when he turned aud bit
them.
The manufacturer accused the wGrkmen
Ofactually rObbiug the firm when they in
sisted on All advance in wages. The scale
was signed, he said simply because the
manufacturers did not wish TO cause an
utter decentralization of business throughout
the country, but the advance was unjust.
The representatives of the Amalgamated
people said that if the manufacturers had
put up the price of bar iron last spring no
advance in wages would have been asked.
The manufacturer sharply asked; Then
because we did not do as yOu would die
tate in regulating the price of bar iron, you
deliberately determined to try and punish
us later by demanding and advance in
wages"
You can take that construction Of it il
you desire, was the reply.
The conference of yesterday is being dis
cussed among the manufacturers to-day.
Some of them are so angry that they will
say nothing about the matter.
A manufacturer who was willing to
speak Of the iron outlook, said this morn
ing: "Bar iron is quoted at , cents, but
is actually selling at Sl.90 or Sl.95. With
in three months it will so still lower.
Notwithstanding the coke strike neutral
pig iron has declined since May . from
$500 to SIS 80.
The manufacturers say that if there Is
any attempt TO put the special for Carne-
gies mills back 10 figures propOrtionate
with those OF last year that they will not
consider the scale binding upon them,
Another manufacturer stated to-day thai
nineteen-tw -twentieths of the firms favored
resisting the demand for an increase in
wages, but that they finally signed the
scale to avoid the paralyzing of business

The Only Basis on which France VIII
Meet England In Egypt.
PARIS, July THE Journal DeS Debats,
referring to the action of the Count De
Montebello, French Ambassador at Con.
stantinople, in relation to the Egyptian
convention, says:
Nothing is more natural than that
French diplomats, at one time, have con.
sidcred that possibly France would assent
to a convention shortening by several
years the period of English occupation OF
Egypt. We are ready to negotiate on that
basis now, but we cannot agree that Eng
land, by any pretext, should have the right
to perpetual occupation of the country or
that she should be allowed to reoccupy it
for reasons of which she alone should
judge. No Frenchman of common sense
sense would thus sanction British pro-
tectorate and convert into q right recop-
nized by France what now is merely a
fact.

Trouble Ahead for Au.tria's Crown Prince.
LONDON, July Vienna correspond
ents dwell with much seriousness upon the
peculiar relations of the Bohemian element
Of the Austro.Hungarian Empire TO the
general government, particularly calling
attention to the gradual shTinkage in the
numerical strength and influence of the
Czech party aud the corresponding growth
and power of the German party in the
Reichsrath. Gradually the German Ian
guage is forcing its way into the Bohe-
mian schools, and with il has appeared
also the German teacher to see
that none but German books are
used. The Czech members Of the
Reichsrath have protested against this
encroachment of the German speaking
portion of the empire upon their distinct
i've nationality with no effect except that
of putting themselves more squarely in Op-
position TO the irresistible current of Ger
man domination. Were the Hungarians
less patriotic, less inclined to resent aggres-
sion and less determined to maintain their
nationality. they long since would have
been subject to the same system of cOer-
ciOn that the Czechs are now writhiDg un-
